Caverna Aroe Jari, Sandstone cave in Chapada dos Guimarães National Park, Brazil.
The cave extends for 1,550 meters through sandstone formations, featuring multiple chambers, passages, and a waterfall near its entrance point.
French explorer Ramis Bucair conducted the first scientific documentation of the cave system in the early 1970s, establishing its geological importance.
The name originates from the Bororo indigenous language, where Aroe Jari translates to 'soul shelter', indicating the site's connection to local traditions.
Visitors must join guided tours through the 2.5-kilometer trail network, bringing helmets, headlamps, sturdy shoes, and sufficient water supplies.
The cave maintains a constant temperature between 19 and 20 degrees Celsius, with a stream feeding into a natural blue lagoon near the entrance.
